In Vietnamese: Chỉ định The consultation

When a doctor says there is an indication for a scan, it means there is a professional reason to do it.
The opposite is a contraindication — the situation in which it must not be done.
Worth asking: what question is this meant to answer, and what happens if we do not do it.

Often confused with: Contraindication — the situation where something must NOT be used. The opposite meaning entirely.
